Ecco perché non abbassa mai la guardia
Nessuno la biasimerebbe se sapesse cosa ha passato.
No one would say that she’s weird or that she’s afraid of commitment. No one would talk behind her back if they knew what he did to her.
You should know that she is very afraid—no, more than that: she is terrorizzato dall'amore. Don’t blame her for that because it’s not her fault.
It’s not her fault that she never saw what true love is. It’s not her fault that she met a jerk who took advantage of her.
It’s not her fault that he took her for granted because he was too selfish and only wanted to please himself. He pretended he loved her because he wanted to have her all to himself.
Era troppo codardo per ammettere che aveva paura di stare da solo. So, he used her and rejected her when he didn’t need her anymore.

L'ha rifiutata e messa da parte come se non avesse mai significato nulla per lui.
Nonostante lei gli abbia dato tutta se stessa, nonostante abbia investito nella loro relazione e l'abbia coltivata perché credeva che sarebbe andata avanti per sempre, lui le ha voltato le spalle, lasciandola distrutta e da solo.
He tortured her by distancing himself bit by bit. He was never man enough to own up to his mistakes. He didn’t have the guts to tell her he doesn’t love her anymore.
L'unica cosa che sapeva fare era escluderla dalla sua vita a poco a poco, senza alcuna spiegazione.
Non ha mai ricevuto il chiusura che si meritava. Non ha mai avuto la possibilità di andare avanti serenamente.
L'ha distrutta comportandosi come se gli importasse di lei. Ogni volta che lei si sentiva ferita e aveva bisogno che lui le stesse accanto, lui non lo faceva mai.
Ogni volta che lei soffocava in lacrime, lui aveva qualcosa di più importante da fare. Non ha mai avuto alcun sostegno. Ha dovuto affrontare tutto da sola.

And the saddest part is that she got used to it. He hurt her because he didn’t respect her. The only words which meant something were his own.
She never had a chance to speak her mind and even when she did, he didn’t listen to her. He pretended he did, but her words turned into mumbling sounds—they meant nothing.
Aveva osato prenderla in giro come una stupida e poi lasciarla, alla fine, a vagare come un cucciolo smarrito per le strade, confusa e sola.
That’s why she never lets her guard down.
She’s afraid to be vulnerable because every time she opened up to him, he turned away and hurt her even more.
Every time she tried to get near him and share her pain, he showed her that he couldn’t care less. Now she has locked her heart and sealed the doors so no one can ever enter.
She’s afraid to make the first move because she is scared to death. When she sees someone she likes, she’ll back down because she doesn’t want history to repeat itself.

She doesn’t even want to give him a chance to prove that he won’t treat her like she was treated in the past.
She’ll walk away, knowing she might miss her chance for happiness, but her fear is way bigger than her bravery to make a move.
Ha paura degli addii senza una parola perché lui non le ha mai dato una chiusura. Non ha mai avuto un vero motivo per cui lui le ha fatto questo.
He never gave her a real reason why he stopped loving her. Actually, she isn’t sure that he loved her at all.
Ha paura che le persone cambino idea a causa del suo passato. All'inizio ha giurato sulla sua vita di amarla. Voleva darle il mondo.
He made her think that she was the most beautiful person in the world and then he took it all from her—just like that without any warning.

She’s afraid that someone will get to know her better and reject her because they don’t like what they see.
She doesn’t want to change for anyone’s sake because she knows she is perfectly fine just the way she is.
Lei sa si merita di meglioma ha paura di prenderla.
And finally, she is tired of people trying to change her and that’s the reason she keeps them out of her reach.
She wants to stay true to herself and if someone doesn’t like it, it’s not her problem.
She appears confident and strong, but actually, she is falling apart from the inside. Every day when she gets up, she puts on her smile like she puts on her clothes. It’s all fake.
She doesn’t feel like smiling, but she has to, otherwise, her fear would eat her alive.
